Editing Ambidexterity (section)

===Basketball===
In [[basketball]] a player may choose to make a pass or shot with the weaker hand. NBA stars LeBron James, Larry Bird, [[Kyrie Irving]], [[Carlos Boozer]], [[David Lee (basketball)|David Lee]], [[John Wall]], [[Derrick Rose]], [[Chandler Parsons]], [[Andrew Bogut]], [[John Henson (basketball)|John Henson]], [[Michael Beasley]], and [[Jerryd Bayless]] are ambidextrous players, as was [[Kobe Bryant]]. Bogut and Henson are both stronger in the post with their left-handed hook shot than they are with their natural right hands. Brothers [[Marc Gasol|Marc]] and [[Pau Gasol]] can make hook shots with either hand while the right hand is dominant for each. [[Bob Cousy]], a Boston Celtics legend was forced to play with his left hand in high school when he injured his right hand, thus making him effectively ambidextrous. [[Mike Conley Jr.|Mike Conley]] shoots left-handed, but has preferred to shoot floaters right handed, as he does everything else right-handed off the court. [[Ben Simmons]] and [[Luke Kennard (basketball)|Luke Kennard]] are also natural right-handers shooting left-handed. [[Tristan Thompson]] is a natural left-hander, and was a left-handed shooter, but has shot right-handed since the 2013–2014 season.<ref>{{cite web|title = Tristan Thompson will switch shooting hands next season|url = https://www.sbnation.com/nba/2013/8/11/4611888/tristan-thompson-shooting-hands-switch|access-date = 2015-06-02|first = Drew|last = Garrison|date = 11 August 2013}}</ref> He does perform left-handed hook shots more often.

[[Charlotte Hornets]] power  forward [[Miles Bridges]] is a left-handed shooter; however, he dunks the ball and blocks shots more frequently with his right hand. Former Los Angeles Lakers center [[Roy Hibbert]] shoots his hook shots equally well with either hand. Former [[Oklahoma City Thunder]] left-handed point guard [[Derek Fisher]] used to dunk with his right hand in his early years. [[Candace Parker]], forward for the [[Chicago Sky]], also has equal dominance with either hand. [[Los Angeles Lakers]] superstar [[Kobe Bryant]] shot with either hand, although his right hand was dominant: due to an injury to the right hand, he was forced to shoot with his left. [[Paul George]], [[Tracy McGrady]] and [[Vince Carter]] are all noted to be right-handed, but rotates clockwise for dunks, but Carter is able to also spin counterclockwise, as he did during high school.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mR-FwCgDvGk|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151216160427/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mR-FwCgDvGk|url-status=dead|archive-date=16 December 2015|title=YouTube|website = [[YouTube]]|date=16 December 2015}}</ref> McGrady also spins anti-clockwise for his baseline dunks. [[Larry Bird]], [[LeBron James]], [[Paul Millsap]], [[Russell Westbrook]], [[Danny Ainge]] and [[Gary Payton]] shoot right-handed, but do almost everything left-handed off the courts, but Bird once had a game in which he only shot left-handed running hook shots, cross passes and layups. [[Ronnie Price]], however has a tendency to dunk with his left hand, but he is a right-handed shooter. [[Josh McRoberts]] is known to be a left handed shooter but does everything with his right hand such as his famous dunks. [[Ivica Zubac]] is a right handed shooter, but can shoot hook shots with both hands, and is more accurate with his left handed hooks. [[Greg Monroe]] is also a left-handed shooter but does right handed jump hooks and everything else right handed off the court.

[[Trevor Booker]] is left handed for shooting a basketball but writes with his right hand. [[Ben Simmons]] shoots jumpers and free throws left-handed, but does everything else right-handed, including dunking, throwing long passes and writing. He also shoots more right-handed non-jumpers (layups, floaters and hook shots).
